Description
Rebecca Solnit's Men Explain Things to Me is a powerful exploration of the ways in which men often assume they know more than women. This slim collection of essays, featuring haunting paintings by Ana Teresa Fernandez, tackles big themes of gender and power with wit and unflinching honesty. Solnit's writing style is clear and cool, making this book an integral read for anyone looking to further the conversation on feminism and contemporary society. The updated edition includes two new essays, including "#YesAllWomen," a response to the 2014 Isla Vista killings and the grassroots movement that arose in response to violence against women and misogyny. This book is a tool we all need to find something that was almost lost - a nuanced understanding of how power operates in our conversations.
